“So I started working 10 hour days on weekends at this company and I met this really cute guy there who was really sweet to me. He introduced himself to me and became a little flirty with me, like calling me “sexy and blowing kisses at me. So the third day seeing me, he asks me when I work and if we’ll see each other the next day. I tell him no since I only work weekends. Then he makes a sad face and says “So I’m not gonna see you tomorrow?” Then he asks for my number. At this point I’m shocked and don’t know what to say so I give him my number. Now 3 days have passed and he hasn’t called me or text me.. Was he just playing me or what? Or maybe he doesn’t want to come off too desperate especially since I’ve been acting like I’m not interested?”

When it comes to dating and starting a relationship, I hate playing games, and hate it when people play games with me.  However, they have kind of become an unfortunate truth of dating nowadays.  However, here’s advice for women and men in this type of situation:Don’t play games if you’re not willing to accept loss. This is a classic case of this scenario.

What you say here is that you’ve been acting non interested.  This mostly tells me that he probably asked for you number because he felt obligated.  Often times in bars, or when men have been flirting with women, or have had a woman flirting with them nowadays asking for a number when not actually interested is just kind of a courtesy.  There is the possibility that this gentleman just has a flirty personality.

Let’s give you credit, and say this gentleman is interested in you.  As I was not there, it is possible he was flirting and not just being a friendly male.  It’s been only 3 days.  Female time tends to work different than male time.  For getting ready 1 male minute is 10 female minutes, when it comes to calling people back for dates 1 male week is 1 female day.  Therefore, you are just being impatient. Guys play the game too - they are better at it.  Especially since they don’t get as emotionally invested as fast as most women.

I’m going to go with you’re not going to hear from him, but you might.  Be patient.  If he responds, he responds.  If not, he was guy you knew for three days.  You’ll get over it - and that’s what Annie says.
